Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- 1 1/4 cups of milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/2 cup of semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons of heavy cream
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups of milk, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.
- Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot or deep skillet to 375°F (190°C).
- Pour the batter into a funnel or squeeze bottle, and carefully drizzle the batter into the hot oil in a circular motion, crossing over itself to create a lattice pattern. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove the funnel cake from the oil and drain on paper towels.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of semisweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the funnel cakes and dust with powdered sugar. Serve warm and enjoy!
